Liverpool's final message to Fabio Carvalho was enough to seal the youngster's exit this summer.

Liverpool reportedly had a message for Carvalho after pre-season that essentially sealed his exit. Per DaveOCKop, the player was told that he wouldn't have gotten much game time in the USA if Cody Gakpo had been available.

Soon after returning back from their American tour, Fabio Carvalho completed a permanent move to Premier League side Brentford for a fee of £27.5 million bringing an end to a two-year spell at Liverpool.

The Portuguese attacker spent his second season at The Reds on loan with RB Leipzig that proved to be disasterous, with just 180 minutes given to the youngster before a premature return to Liverpool six months later. He was then sent on loan to Championship side Hull City where Carvalho impressed and ultimatley earnt himself a spot in Liverpool's squad for their USA tour.
